Creation and immortality: I can manifest endless talents

"Keep looking! They can't just disappear!" The captain gritted his teeth and said, he refused to accept any possibility of failure.

Just then, a scout came running in, with panic on his face: "Captain, we found some new traces in the southeast, maybe they left them!"

A glimmer of hope flashed in the captain's eyes, and he immediately led the warriors to chase in that direction.

But when they arrived at the scene, they found only traces left by a group of disturbed beasts. Qiangu and his team seemed to have really turned into air and disappeared in this boundless forest.

The captain waved his spear angrily, he couldn't accept such a result. But he also knew that it was meaningless to continue searching blindly here.

He was silent for a moment, and finally ordered a retreat: "Go back, we must re-plan. This group of people will not let them go just like that."

Although the Naxi guards were unwilling, they could only obey the order and return. Their footsteps were heavy, and every step was stepped on the anger in their hearts.

In another direction away from them, Qiangu and his team were walking carefully through the forest. Their faces were tired, but their eyes were shining with determination.

They knew that this game of escape and pursuit was far from over, and every step was full of unknowns and dangers. But as long as they had a breath left, they would never give up the pace of progress.

…

The leaves rustled in the breeze, as if telling the ancient legend of this forest.

Led by Qiangu, the team shuttled through the dense forest trails, and everyone's steps were as light as possible to avoid alarming the lurking danger.

The sun shone through the lush tree canopy and sprinkled on the ground, bringing a touch of warmth to this dark forest.

But everyone in the team knew that this warm light could not dispel the tension and uneasiness in their hearts.

They kept changing their routes to confuse possible trackers.

The Yin magician was behind the team, casting small tracking spells from time to time to try to cover their whereabouts.

While walking, Qiangu's eyes swept around from time to time, and his perception keenly captured any abnormal breath in this forest.

Although they had escaped the direct pursuit of the Naxi warriors, he knew that the threat of the enemy was still following them.

Suddenly, a small whistle beast flew over the treetops, and its cry was sharp and piercing, attracting the team's attention.

This is a creature unique to the Nine Netherworld. They did not expect that there are also creatures in this sealed land.

Qiangu signaled everyone to stop. He took out a special crystal from his arms and blew it gently, making a tone similar to that of the whistle beast.

The whistle beast seemed to be called and flew to Qiangu's hand, leaving a faint light on the crystal.

Qiangu closed his eyes and sensed the surrounding dynamics through the connection between the crystal and the whistle beast.

After a moment, he opened his eyes and showed a bit of solemnity on his face: "We need to speed up. There is a river not far ahead. We must cross the river before dark, just in case."

The team members did not ask more questions, quickly adjusted their equipment and quickened their pace.

They were full of trust in Qiangu's judgment and knew that he would not shoot without purpose.

Soon, they heard the sound of the rushing river, which was the music of nature and a comfort in their hearts.

The river meant that they could temporarily get rid of the tracking and provided them with a natural barrier.

They quickly found a relatively gentle section of the river. Several strong men and seal masters worked together to cast spells, summoning several streams of water to form a temporary floating bridge.

The team began to cross the river in an orderly manner, and everyone held tightly to the backpack of the companion in front to prevent being washed away by the turbulent river.

The doctor and the seal master stayed at the end to ensure that everyone crossed the river safely.

When the last person stepped onto the other side, the seal master waved his staff, and the water bridge dissipated, and the river returned to its original rush.

All they left were the chaotic footprints on the river bank. As time passed, these traces would be washed away by the river.

Qiangu stood on the river bank, his eyes swept across the faces of everyone in the team. He could feel their fatigue, but more of their indomitable and tenacious.

"Rest for a while, and then we will move on." His voice was firm and calm.

The team took a brief rest on the river bank, replenished some water and food, and then set out on the road again.

Their journey was still full of hardships and uncertainties, but under Qiangu's leadership, everyone was full of confidence. They believed that no matter how many difficulties and challenges there were ahead, they would overcome them one by one.

The shadows between the trees gradually deepened, and the night was like a big net, slowly landing in every corner of the forest.

After resting for a while on the river bank, Qiangu's team set out on the night road again. They knew that the longer they stayed, the greater the risk of being tracked.

As night fell, the sounds in the forest became more active. The rustling of leaves, the chirping of night birds, and the subtle noises of unknown creatures wandering at night made people nervous.

Soon, the team entered a dense bush.

Qiangu signaled everyone to slow down. His intuition told him that there might be unknown dangers hidden here. At this moment, a huge shadow suddenly jumped out of the bushes and pounced on a warrior in the team.

It was a black bear, with hungry and angry light in its eyes. Obviously, Qiangu's team accidentally broke into its territory.

The warriors responded quickly, and the strong men waved their weapons in their hands, trying to repel the bear. Yin Mage quickly chanted a spell, preparing to cast a binding spell.

Tieyi waved his sword and stood at the front of the team.

His eyes were firm, and his body was agile to avoid every attack of the black bear.

He knew that the threat in front of him must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the night team would fall into a greater crisis.

At this critical moment, the doctor took out a bottle of potion mixed with special spices from his backpack, broke the bottle, and the strong smell quickly spread.

The black bear suddenly stopped attacking, looking a little confused and uneasy, it shook its head, trying to get rid of the pungent smell.

Yin Mage seized the opportunity and finished chanting the spell. A beam of light shot out from his staff and hit the black bear accurately. The bear's body was wrapped in a layer of light blue halo. It struggled for a few times and finally fell to the ground powerlessly.

Qiangu nodded to the doctor to express his gratitude.

He knew that if the doctor had not responded in time, some of them might be injured, or even worse.

The team did not stop, and quickly bypassed the fallen black bear and continued to move towards their destination.

Their hearts were full of vigilance, knowing that danger was everywhere in this unknown forest.

The night was getting darker, but Qiangu's team did not panic.

They supported each other and faced every challenge together. Under Qiangu's leadership, their beliefs were as bright as the stars, illuminating the way forward.

In the night, silence enveloped the forest, and only the footsteps of Qiangu and his team and the occasional rustling sound broke the tranquility.

The team continued to move forward, and everyone's heart was tense, fearing that they would encounter an accident in the next moment.

Qiangu walked in front, his eyes as sharp as a falcon, trying to find any possible danger in the dim light.

His intuition was extremely sharp, and his years of experience in surviving in the wild allowed him to sense tiny anomalies.

The shadows between the trees became denser, as if every tree was whispering and discussing the secrets lurking in the darkness.

Qiangu's team moved forward cautiously in this silent world, and every step they took was extremely cautious.

The moon hid in the clouds, the night became heavier, and the vision became blurred.

Just then, a sudden gust of wind swept through, rolling up the dead leaves on the ground, making the atmosphere in the forest more tense.

Qiangu immediately responded, signaling the team to move closer, and whispered: "Be careful, there may be a storm."

They had just gathered together when a flash of lightning broke through the night sky, followed by a deafening thunder. Heavy rain poured down, soaking them in an instant.

Everyone in the team tried to stay calm, but they also felt powerless in the face of such a natural disaster. The rain became heavier and heavier, almost drowning them.

"Quick, find cover!" Qiangu shouted loudly, leading the team to run towards a seemingly solid big rock.

They squeezed into the gap under the rock, trying to avoid being directly attacked by the strong wind and heavy rain. The Yin Mage cast a spell urgently and summoned a crystal barrier to provide additional protection for the team.

However, just when they thought they could be safe for a while, there was a loud bang, and a huge tree was broken by the wind and fell towards their shelter.

"Be careful!" Qiangu shouted, pushing away the teammates around him and rolling to avoid it.

The tree hit the crystal barrier, making a harsh cracking sound. Although the Yin Mage's spell was strong, it also cracked under the violent impact.

The strong men in the team stepped forward and used all their strength to support the barrier that was about to collapse, while others took the opportunity to find a safer shelter.

In the wind and rain, they found a natural cave, which was small but large enough to accommodate all of them.

"Go in quickly!" Qiangu assisted his teammates and commanded.

They squeezed into the cave one by one, and at the moment when the last person entered the cave, the crystal barrier finally couldn't withstand the pressure and shattered.

Inside the cave, the team stayed close to each other, trying to minimize the shaking of their bodies.

The storm was raging outside, but in this small haven, they found a moment of peace.

Qiangu checked everyone's condition and confirmed that no one was injured, then he sighed softly. He knew that this storm was just one of the many dangers they encountered in this forest.

He sat near the entrance of the cave, vigilantly observing the situation outside. Although the storm temporarily stopped their progress, he still had a firm belief in his heart-as long as they were united, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

The team waited in the cave for a whole night until the storm gradually subsided and the first ray of morning light shone through the clouds, illuminating the wet forest.

Qiangu stood up, patted the dirt on his body, smiled at everyone in the team and said: "A new day has begun, and we should set off."

The team members encouraged each other, reorganized their equipment, and prepared to embark on an unknown journey again. Their goal is still far away, but their will is stronger than ever.

Following the guidance of the morning light, Qiangu led the team out of the cave.

Their clothes were not completely dry yet, but this was no longer a big problem in the journey of survival and adventure.

The wilderness ahead was like an uncharted map, waiting for them to explore every corner.

They passed through a forest that had been ravaged by a storm. Fallen trees and scattered branches increased the difficulty of the journey, but these obstacles did not slow down their pace. Qiangu's eyes were firm. He knew that every step was closer to the goal.

The team soon came to an open area, where the ground was covered with thick green grass. Several wild flowers swayed in the wind, bringing a hint of vitality to the wilderness. However, Qiangu did not relax his vigilance. He knew that behind this beautiful scenery, there might be unknown dangers.

He signaled the team to disperse so as not to become an easy target for attack. The scouts explored the way ahead, while the wrestlers and the seal masters remained vigilant and ready to respond to possible threats at any time.

Just as the team was slowly moving forward, the scouts suddenly issued a warning gesture. Qiangu responded quickly and signaled the team to stop. They held their breath and put their ears close to the ground, trying to catch any abnormal sounds.

A moment later, a faint tremor came, as if some huge creature was approaching. The team quickly hid behind the surrounding grass and rocks, ready for possible attacks.

Qiangu tightly grasped the long sword in his hand, his eyes penetrated the grass and locked onto the source of the tremor. Soon, a huge shadow appeared in their sight, and a wilderness giant wolf slowly walked out of the woods.

The giant wolf's eyes were sharp, and it seemed to be aware of the team's presence, but it did not immediately attack. Qiangu observed the giant wolf's behavior, and he realized that this giant wolf might not be an enemy, but the guardian of this wilderness.

He slowly stood up and signaled the team not to act rashly. Qiangu slowly approached the giant wolf, his eyes full of respect and peace. The giant wolf stared at him, but did not show hostility.

Qiangu reached out and gently touched the giant wolf's front paw. At this moment, he and the giant wolf seemed to have established some kind of wonderful connection. The giant wolf let out a low howl, then turned and returned to the depths of the forest.

Seeing this, the team stood up from their hiding places. They admired Qiangu's courage and wisdom, and were also pleased with this peaceful exchange.

Qian Gu looked back at the team, and a smile appeared on his face. He knew that they had just passed a test in the wilderness, and this was just an episode in their journey.

As time went by, the team continued to explore the wilderness, they crossed hills and streams, and every step enriched their experience and stories.

Every corner of the wilderness was full of unknowns and challenges, but under Qian Gu's leadership, every member of the team was full of courage and determination.

They believed that as long as they were united, nothing could stop them from moving forward. (End of this chapter)
